Title: Great !
Review: Bought this for my hubby because he has Afib and it has many other options to help monitor his health, sleep, breathing etc. He has been wearing it the last few months and wears it most all the time. The Afib usually picks up at night and sends him a report. The watch provides additional data to provide the Cardiologist, we also have the Kardia mobile that made to monitor Afib. The watch works really well and so far he is really happy to have it. I fell better knowing he can monitor his heart rate while at work or sleeping.

Title: It tracks bumps on the road.
Review: I feel like I'm cheat with my steps because, I noticed the steps be counting a lot when im driving down the highway. I also noticed one of the clock faces don't work anymore. Fortunately when using the app, there are many other faces to use! Lastly, the watch isn't consistent at tracking my activity. It usually can "sense" an elevated HR and more steps would equal some sort of activity. The last time I played soccer it didn't track my activity. I guess I'll have to be mindful and select the sport activity prior to playing.

Title: Love my Fitbit
Review: I like the king battery life and how my Fitbit looks on my arm. I miss the ability to “find my phone “ that the previous model had because I used it a lot. I mostly use it for daily step counting.

Title: Utterly worthless!
Review: After 5 years of good service my old Versa was struggling to keep a charge for 24 hours so I decided to replace it with a Sense 2. Huge mistake!This device drops to 20% charge in about 12 hours and then requires charging for about 2 hours. You can wear it during the day or at night, but you really can’t do both unless you set aside a couple of hours for charging.The watch has all sorts of sensors, but they all need to be turned off if you want 12 hours of life. Searching the message boards this seems common. I will play with the recommendations Insee there for a couple more days before returning it, but I’m not hopefull.It is inexcusible for a company to try to market a product that falls so short of their written claims! Avoid Fitbit if you are looking for a smart watch!Update: Turning off things like stress management and a restart apear to have imroved the battery life. Yesterday it dropped to about 60% including a 40minute walk with the GPS on. Unfortunately, it won’t charge back to 100% in the time it takes me to shower and dress like my old Versa. So it is probably a charge twise a day affair rather than the advertized once every 6 days. As others have remarked, the HR monitor seems to be incredibly inaccurate. It takes quite a while to react when starting a vigourous exercise and the HR laghs the obvioud signs like heavy breathing by several minutes. It barely registers exercises like the rowing machine in spite of the evident level of exertion. On a very steep hill that left me huffing and puffing it barely cracked into the fat burn zone. For some reason, the weather app has decided to stop working, too. The Google Maps shows turns that have nothing to do with the route being shown on the phone. This came and went, but I certainly wouldn’t trust it if I needed to get somewhere. I’m still quite dissatisfied. More later…Well, I did get the weather app to work by turning location services to “always”. On days I don’t use GPS I can actually charge it during my morning shower and get close to 100%.The heart beat monitor continues to be awful. My old Versa was often slow to recognize exercise, but the Sense 2 can take 10 minutes to even notice increased heart rate.I started the trial offer on Premium but don’t see anything there that would persuade me to pay for it once the trial period ends.Further update - for some reason, the Sense 2 has begun to mistake driving for bicycling. Based on it’s claims, I should easily win the tour de france. Pretty good for an old fat guy😃Update after another month. The charging seems to have sorted itself out enough that I only need to charge once per day. The GPS IS some sort of random number generator, with the distance for the same exact walk varying by around 30% from day to day. Very brisk walks often show a slower pace than casual strolls.The Sense has begun to begrudgingly acknowledge my heart is beating during rowing sessions, but is wildly inaccurate. For the stationary bike it tends to not register anything, then overshoot to ridiculous levels before settling in to reasonable agreement with the HR monitor on the bike.The sleep logging seemed to stop at 14 days even though I have worn the Sense every night for at least 40 days. I’m not sure I care what my “sleep animal” is anyway - is this intended for children, or what???My next fitness tracker/smart watch will definitely not be Fitbit. I will miss having 7 or so years of history, but if most of it is bogus, who cares?

Title: Easy to customize the app and watch to my needs
Review: I purchased this watch primarily for its continuous heart monitoring, ECG app, sleep monitoring, plus some basic fitness like steps and stairs.It was easy to install. I was pleased to be able to turn off the GPS and Alexa which may have been good for an extra day of battery life. I was able to turn off the fitness nags. I've been running and working out over 40 years and don't need nags. I was also able to skip the Premium service since I don't want a monthly bill and don't want other nagging.There are a huge number of watch faces available. I focused only on free watch faces. One thing that wasn't clear is that apparently you can only install 6 faces on the watch. When I found a better choice, it wouldn't install and had no useful explanation of why not. I ended up looking specifically for watch faces that included a battery indicator (surprisingly not universal!) and basic fitness figures. The hard part was finding watch faces that increased the font size of the battery % and fitness figures so they were more easily legible to older eyes.The biggest problem is with the watch band. I have a narrow wrist and bands with holes like the OEM band are never spaced in a way that fits well. So I ordered a new band that is metal mesh and uses a clamp to fix the length. That works to get a comfortable fit, but is a pain to put on. Good thing I only take the watch off once a day! So I tried another watch band that had a folding clasp, like my old watch band, and is adjusted in length by removing links. The whole process of removing links was a serious pain, requiring a magnifying ring light and great patience. And the link removal did not yield a snug and comfortable fit, just as with the OEM watch band. Back to the band that works, for now.Update. I just discovered it is possible, apparently, to get an adapter from my old watch band that attaches to the watch with pins to the FitBit clamp system. I'm hoping that will allow me to use my old watch band which was excellent.Further update:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BN1RVM5W?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_detailsThis adapter took a long time to arrive all the way from China, but it worked perfectly. My old watch band was a 20mm band with adjustable sizing clamp and a folding clasp to take it on and off:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08CY5D2LB/ref=pe_2313400_740551120_em_1p_0_lm?th=1Now I have the best of all worlds. A good watch and it is easy to put on and take off with a snug fit. I wonder why no one seems to make this style of watch band specifically to fit the FitBit?

Review: Decidi esperar a poner mi opinión posterior a que venciera la app de paga que te incluyen por 6 meses. El reloj lo compre por temas de salud mas que por ejercicio. Para empezar la bateria solo dura 7 dias a lo mucho (siempre y cuando no hagas ejercicio sino dura mucho menos), adicional si configuraba las notificicaciones en el reloj me duraba aprox 3 dias la pila, ahora despues de 8 meses me dura a lo mucho 5 dias igual sin ocuparlo para hacer ejercicio y sin las notificaciones, el tema de los pasos nunca me convencio en un viaje con amigos me di cuenta que este reloj marca pasos de más ellos teniendo garmin regularmente traian aprox los mismos pasos y yo siempre traia incluso 2mil o mas haciendo exactamente el mismo recorrido. El tema del periodo todo el tiempo tengo que corregirlo y aunque lo configure correcto siempre me lo marca cuando quiere, sin la app de paga ($189 por mes) quitan demasiadas bondades de monitoreo, en conclusion no es un reloj que recomiende en general por el costo que tiene.
